Birds - can cause considerable damage by snapping off branches, especially in young trees. Cockatoos, corellas and galahs appear to be main culprits. Control can be through planting more attractive trees around grove.

Hares - will occasionally nip off young stems and leave them on the ground. Tree guards will solve the problem.

Rabbits - may ringbark young trees. Tree guards will prevent this.

Wallabies - will sometimes eat leaves and young twigs, especially when there is a shortage of grass.

Kangaroos - will sometimes eat leaves and young twigs, especially when there is a shortage of grass. Damage not generally as severe as wallabies.
